Trying to help a friend... looking to confirm or correct the size of the fiber optic front site on a 9mm performance center Shield . From what I've found it appears to be 0.60 . He called S&W but the woman he talked to wasn't any help surprisingly . Thanks,
Doug

I have a M&P 9 Shield 2.0 Performance Center 3.1 barrel with factory fiber optic sights. Measuring the front sight light pipe with a caliper, I get .070. It's difficult to measure with the pipe installed but mine is definitely closer to .070 than .060. I'm also not sure if all PC fiber optics are the same or not.

Edit: Also measured my M&P 9 Shield Plus Performance Center 4" barrel and got .071 (possibly a little swollen from being heated).

So, two data points showing light pipes at .070.

Thanks for the help guys . He was in a hurry and picked up some 0.60 and installed it . It did seem a bit on the small side but held in place . The rush is passed now .
